How To Install Drip Irrigation

Many people don’t realize that the manual watering systems they have in place for their yards, gardens, and flowerbeds actually waste water. When you manually water or use a standard “above ground” sprinkler, much of the water you’re using is lost due to deep percolation, runoff, and evaporation. Now, not only is this a waste, it actually does a disservice to your grass, plants, vegetables, and flowers, because when water is lost, the root systems of these plants aren’t receiving all of the nourishment they need to thrive.

A drip irrigation system allows you to use water more efficiently. Almost all of the water generated is actually used by the plants, and the roots are reached more effectively. Drip irrigation also allows you to set a strict watering schedule, which enables you to meet the specific challenges of more demanding plant life. It also ensures that your plants aren’t missing out on their water.
